United Kingdom
General community for news/discussion in the UK.
Less serious posts should go in [email protected] or [email protected]
More serious politics should go in [email protected].
Try not to spam the same link to multiple feddit.uk communities.
Pick the most appropriate, and put it there.
Posts should be related to UK-centric news, and should be either a link to a reputable source, or a text post on this community.
Opinion pieces are also allowed, provided they are not misleading/misrepresented/drivel, and have proper sources.
If you think "reputable news source" needs some definition, by all means start a meta thread.
Posts should be manually submitted, not by bot. Link titles should not be editorialised.
Disappointing comments will generally be left to fester in ratio, outright horrible comments will be removed.
Message the mods if you feel something really should be removed, or if a user seems to have a pattern of awful comments.

I may be wrong but I believe the article is paraphrasing the "be modest with your payrise expectations or we'll have inflation!" nonsense from a few months ago.
Like yh, that's the problem, nothing to do with a quarter trillion pumped in the the economy during COVID or Brexit.
The elite are once again trying to saddle the common man with the downfalls of the economy whilst they continue to laugh all the way to the bank.
Sorry if I got the wrong end of the stick with your comment.

Money is, at root, promises.
Fungible, serialised, abstracted, standardised, but based on promises.
Inflation occurs when the promises are less completely believed.
I do not say other things could not cause inflation, but a vast liar leading a party of liars, cheats, thieves and incompetents must lead to devaluation of the country's promises.
